Greetings - I've been tinkering with GBPVR a bit and I think I'm ready to build the real PC for it but I'd like to run 4 external DirecTV tuners on this box. This utility (DirecTVChannelControl in the Wiki) should solve the issue of changing the channels but wondering if there are any other folks running 3 or 4 DirecTV tuners and changing channels with this utility? I only have 1 built in serial port to use but saw the blurb in the wiki regarding USB -> Serial converters and the Pin mods to make on the cable. Anyone running a couple in this method? How has it been working for you? Knowing this ahead of time would really help me out before I started shelling out cash for the extra cards and STBs. I'm looking to replace a DirecTivo with gbpvr and cant live without recording at least 2 and watching 1 recorded. Recording 2 or 3 and using an MVP in the other room would be even better 
Beautiful work, Sub, and the Plugin/utility writers.
